About reactjs/reactjs.org
This repository contains the source code and documentation for react.dev, the official React documentation website. It serves as the primary reference for developers learning and working with React, providing guides, API documentation, and best practices for the popular JavaScript library.
The project is built with Next.js and uses a combination of React components and markdown-based content files to deliver its documentation. Contributors can run the site locally with Node.js and Yarn, with hot-reloading support for both React components and markdown changes. The development workflow includes testing, linting with ESLint, code formatting with Prettier, and type checking to maintain quality standards.
The documentation is organized into multiple sections with different purposes and tones, and the project actively encourages community contributions through a structured guidelines document. The content is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, and there are ongoing translation efforts to make React documentation accessible to non-English-speaking developers worldwide.
